Effect of the gelling mechanism on the physical properties of bigels based on whey protein isolate.

The effect of the cold-set and heat-set gelling mechanism of whey protein isolate on bigel production was assessed. For this purpose, hydrogel phase was produced with whey protein isolated (10 % w/v) and for oleogel sunflower oil and glycerol monostearate (7.5 % w/v) were used.
